Rivertown: The Spin-Off (Part 18)

 

Me: Next chapter, Kiyoshi's eldritch father reveals that this whole thing was caused by the sibling of the banished god (from the previous saga), having the same cursed powers as the entity that caused the multiple births situation around the world, and has chosen Ayame as a vessel to bear children that will one day become its army to seek vengeance for their banished brother

 

The eldritch god's revelation echoed through the temple, weaving a narrative of celestial vengeance and cosmic intricacies. Hiroshi, grappling with the weight of this newfound knowledge, listened intently as Kiyoshi's eldritch father unfolded the tale.

"In the cosmic dance of existence," the eldritch god intoned, "there exists a sibling to the banished god—an entity fueled by the same cursed powers that wrought havoc upon your wife and countless others. This entity, known as Oblivion's Whisper, seeks retribution for the banishment of their kin and has chosen your wife, Ayame, as a vessel."

The air in the temple shimmered with eldritch energies as the god continued to enlighten them. "Oblivion's Whisper's cursed powers influence the cycle of births, using mortal vessels to bear children destined to become an army—a force that will unleash vengeance upon the eldritch realm and the celestial beings who condemned their sibling."

Hiroshi, now burdened with the gravity of the cosmic struggle, contemplated the dire fate that awaited Ayame and their unborn children. Kiyoshi, determined to assist Hiroshi in breaking the celestial bonds, spoke with a resolute tone.

"To break Oblivion's Whisper's hold, we must delve deeper into the eldritch realm, confronting the very source of this curse. There, amidst cosmic complexities, we may find a way to sever the ties that bind your wife and countless others to this celestial vendetta."

As they prepared to embark on a journey through the eldritch realm, Hiroshi steeled himself for the challenges that lay ahead, his love for Ayame fueling his resolve to defy the cosmic forces that sought to shape their destiny.
